Connecting the Media Server Cables

Connecting a Media Server to the KVM

To connect the Media Server to a KVM:

1. Locate a KVM cable in the kit. It has a 25-pin connector on one end

and a 9-pin connector, a keyboard connector, and a mouse connector

on the other end.

2. Attach the 25-pin connector to a free port on the back of the KVM.

Secure the connector with the thumbscrews in the connector.

3. Attach the 9-pin connector to the video port on the back of the File

Manager. Secure the connector with the thumbscrews in the connector.

4. Locate the keyboard/mouse Y-cable in the Media Server kit. Plug the

single-end into the keyboard/mouse port on the back of the Media

Server.

5. Attach the right branch of the connector on the Y-cable to the keyboard

connector.

6. Attach the left branch of the connector on the Y-cable to the mouse

connector.

When connecting the Y-cable, you determine left and right by looking at

the back of the File Manager. Be sure to connect the Y-cable with the

mouse on the left and the keyboard on the right.

Connecting a Media Server to the MEDIASwitch

To connect a Media Server to the MEDIASwitch:

1. Locate the optical cable. Look for a cable with a dual plug on one end

(see Figure 1).

2. Make sure the cable has an LC (small) optical cable connector to

match the connector on the Fibre Channel adapter board. If the

connector is not the correct one, contact your optical cable installer to

arrange for them to change the connector.

3. Remove the protective covers from the optical cable connector on the

optical cable.

4. Remove the protective cover from the Fibre Channel adapter board on

the Media Server.
